Description
If there is one thing you can’t miss in your visit to Barcelona, that is the Sagrada Familia. Being one of the most famous landmarks in the world, the story of this church goes beyond the building itself. The temple means so much to Barcelona that it is impossible to understand the city as it is today without Gaudí and the Sagrada Familia.
In Gaudí’s work, everything has a reason to be. Every little detail has a meaning. On this three-hour tour in English, Japanese, Korean or Chinese, we will tell you all about Gaudi’s unfinished dream and how it developed after the tragic death of the architect, from the late 1890s until today.
At the end of the tour, you will benefit from a fast-track ticket to enter the Sagrada Familia without waiting in line.

Itinerary
Our tour starts at Sant Pau Hospital, one of Barcelona's hidden gems only 5 minutes away from Sagrada Família. More than a century ago, this was one of the most avantgarde hospitals in Europe, and also one of the most beautiful. Sant Pau was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. You will learn about its history and how its origins are very similar to those of the Sagrada Família.
After Sant Pau, you'll walk down Avinguda Gaudí while you hear about the life of the irreplaceable architect Antoni Gaudi in the street that bears his name. His imagination created the most amazing buildings in Barcelona, and now they can be admired by visitors from all over the world.
The new facade is called the Passion facade, and it represents the crucifixion of Jesus. The sculptures in this facade are sharp and full of symbolysm: our guides will explain all the hidden details!
The old facade represents the birth of Jesus, that's why it's called the Nativity facade. On this side, nature takes over and the sculpture work makes Sagrada Familia look like the entrance to a spiritual forest full of secrets that our guide will unveil for you.
Get inside the Sagrada Família and feel the goosebumps the moment you step in: it's like nothing you've ever seen before. With our fast-track ticket, you don't have to stand in line! Finish your tour comfortably and marvel at the lights coming in through the stained-glass windows. You'll be able to finish the visit inside the temple at your own pace with an audioguide in your selected language.
